[Cob] roof first, roof second...posts?Amanda Peck ap615 at hotmail.comMon Jan 8 10:06:17 CST 2007
I think I agree with Lance, that if you want to do pure cob, the roof should be last (although Ianto's book mentions building a roof on temporary poles, then lowering it onto the house--which leaves me shuddering). It is, however, not what I'm likely to do. Even with the earth oven, the roof is going up first. The only real disadvantage I can think of is that it may give you a false feeling of having built a house. So you work sporadically instead of continuously. ................. Anyway, maybe I'm getting ahead of myself; what's the general consensus: posts and roof first, or walls first? _________________________________________________________________ >From photos to predictions, The MSN Entertainment Guide to Golden Globes has it all. http://tv.msn.com/tv/globes2007/?icid=nctagline1
